I wanna be in a team!

My averages are rubbish, my photos are boring. I think I am a really great candidate for a Team? Any suggestions? apart from go and find a dark cave well away from DPC?

I am now entered in Wind, Landscape, and Free Study. I predict three more 4.XX to go along with the two 4.6's I have in this week's challenges. I had fun, I like the shots, and I SUCK!

I have entries in Wind III shot this morning and Landscape/Portrait shot this afternoon. What a beautiful day! Out with my camera beats my original plans to practice with photoshop channels.

I just stuck one in Wind (entry #102 - hoping for a top 150 finish), and am contemplating a shot for the portrait-oriented landscape. But I fear DNMC on that one. May enter it anyway!

Gorgeous day here, too.

I'm number #112 in Wind. Woohoo! 4.5 here I come again. I'm also in FreeStudy, that might get a 4.8. And my Bokeh still sucks. I'm at 4.75 on that one.

I think we should start another team. Start recruiting! When you get to 4 people, you can "compete" with us. But you can consider yourself in Team Suck right now.

Kelli, I gotta say I admire your gumption. You're like me - set a goal, but make it reasonable. :-)

I'm still trying to decide between a DNMC landscape in portrait mode, or a DNMC portrait in landscape mode. Either way, the best I can probably hope for is a lot of angry comments and a lot of 2's when all is said and done. Rhetorical question - do I go ahead and enter?

Of course I do. Just can't decide which one. Mom (who does not have an account and does not vote, and is also notorious at loving my low scoring pics) likes both of 'em.

My "wind" entry will be a toss-up - no predictions on that one.

I predict another glorious disaster with my Wind entry, much like my sukeh Bokeh. But I love this shot more than my bokeh, and this time I was actually trying to fulfill the challenge.

I actually tried too... it was so windy I could barely keep my camera still!!! But, don't know if it actually came through in the photo.

There was a wind advisory today for the entire Northeast region of the US. Coincidence?

10/29/2006 08:28:59 PM · #563

And oddly enough, down here in Tejas where it's usually quite windy, it's been relatively calm all week.

And just as long as you don't suck like you're doing in Trains, Don...

It's gonna be sad when we have to kick the leader out...

Then again, I have a 6+ in bokeh, which doesn't sukeh. Hard to outdo my Oxymoron as far a sucking goes, though. :-)

My train entry also doesn't suck too badly at 5.7, but it sucks more than Don's. I consider that an honor.

Congrats to

Giorgio for a train red ribbon.

All of these trains reached the final destination:

I think I'm getting whipped for being so sucky.
